Pathology is the study of disease: its etiology, pathogenesis, pathophysiology, and its morphologic expression at organ, tissue, cellular and ultrastructural levels. The Department of Pathology provides USC's medical students with training in general, systemic and clinical pathology. This training enables students to understand and visualize the basic processes underlying a patient's signs, symptoms and clinical course, and to understand and evaluate the alterations in laboratory findings produced by disease.
The Department of Pathology contributes to instruction in all segments of the organ system review course of Year II and to the Junior/Senior Continuum of the medical student curriculum. The department also offers training to graduate students in pathobiology and to interns and residents at the LAC + USC Medical Center.
With more than 60 full-time faculty and more than 30 residents-in-training, the USC Department of Pathology is one of the largest pathology departments in the United States. The department is particularly strong in areas of hematopathology, immunocytochemistry, immunopathology, neuropathology, and AIDS-related research. The department maintains ongoing research interests in hematopathology and neuropathology and has begun to expand its base in radioimmunoimaging and immunotherapy, utilizing monoclonal antibodies. It also has ongoing research projects in the new areas of molecular and genetic pathology.
The majority of pathology research space is located in the Hoffman Medical Research Center Building and the Edmondson Building. Faculty of the department are also located in the Norris Cancer Research Hospital and in McKibben Hall, both located on the Health Sciences Campus.
The department provides diagnostic laboratory services for the LAC + USC Medical Center, the Norris Cancer Hospital, the Doheny Eye Hospital, USC University Hospital and the USC Clinical Reference Laboratories. Approximately 40 of the department's full-time faculty members work in service laboratories throughout the LAC + USC Medical Center, where they are supported by 34 residents and fellows and a technical and clerical staff numbering in excess of 500. The Norris Cancer Hospital and Research Institute houses three full-time pathologists, two fellows and approximately 25 clerical and support staff.
